Grade 8 Motion & graphs worksheet in three levels

The same 20-question worksheet on motion & graphs in Support, Core and Challenge versions. Question by question, each version keeps the topic and changes the difficulty.

Compare the three levels

Support

Easier questions on the same topics, for students who need more practice with the basics.

Questions

Grade range
Grades 6 to 11
Topics
Motion & graphs

Sample questions

  1. Signed velocity changes from 2 m/s to 36 m/s in 4 s. Find the average acceleration. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m/s².
  2. A robot moves 117 m east and then 40 m west along a straight line. Find the total distance travelled. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m.
  3. Signed velocity changes from 5 m/s to 18 m/s in 12 s. Find the average acceleration. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m/s².

Core

  2. Signed velocity changes from 30 m/s to 6 m/s in 12 s. Find the average acceleration. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m/s².
  3. On an east-positive axis, position changes from 41 m to 25 m in 24 s. Find the signed average velocity. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m/s.

Challenge

Harder questions on the same topics, for students who are ready to stretch.

Topics
Motion & graphs

Sample questions

  1. Use one signed axis. Initial velocity is 10 m/s and constant acceleration is -1 m/s² for 7 s. Find the displacement. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m.
  2. A cart moves at 19 m/s, then slows at a constant 9 m/s² to rest. Find its braking distance, excluding any reaction distance. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m.
  3. Use one signed axis. Initial velocity is 2 m/s and constant acceleration is 4 m/s² for 4 s. Find the displacement. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in m.

Using the three versions

  • Start everyone with the same short explanation, then hand out Support, Core or Challenge.
  • Question numbers line up across the versions, so you can go through the answers with the whole class.
  • The PDF has a cover page and each version on its own pages; the answer keys PDF has all three keys.
